In this section, the results of research performed until now are summarized and the "functions" possessed by alkaline ionized water are introduced.

Investigation of effectiveness through animal effectiveness testing

• Intestinal fermentation suppression effect (Research conducted by Food Science Course, Faculty of Agriculture, Gifu University)
• Calcium absorption effect (Research conducted by Graduate School of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Kyoto University)
• Gastric mucous membrane damage suppression effect (Research conducted by 1st Internal Medicine Dept. of the Kyoto Pref. Medical University)
• Other effects (Research conducted by Medical Research, Animal Experimentation, Saitama Medical College)

Investigation of effectiveness through clinical testing

(Collaborative research by 2nd Internal Medicine Dept. of Shiga Medical University and Dept. of Gastroenterology, National Ohkura Hospital)
